This paper proposes ST-GAIN+, a spatiotemporal GAN for imputing missing solar irradiance data, integrating TCNs, dual attention, and Bayesian uncertainty estimation. Evaluated on real datasets under MCAR missing rates of 30-90%, it achieves…

Mantel N

This paper argues that exogenous cost reduction in energy system models misses deployment-cost feedback, hiding nonlinear policy dynamics. Using a stylized Great Britain power system, it identifies a battery subsidy threshold (~£513/kW) whe…

Li H, Wu J

This study proposes a HEFA-PG process integrating combined heat and power into the conventional HEFA route for waste oil-to-SAF production, and compares environmental performance via LCA. Under grid decarbonization and green hydrogen scenar…

This study bridges academic theory and corporate practice by analyzing the intersection of carbon emissions, carbon taxation, and supply chain inventory models (SCIM). Using Main Path Analysis on 3,359 papers (1995-2025), it identifies 41 r…

Cropp, Adam

This study tests whether satellite embedding fields (AlphaEarth) retain ecologically meaningful information about shallow coral-reef benthos via a registered decodability survey. Hard coral is decoded with rho .73 at 10m, and sand agrees wi…

Mantegna, Gabriel

This archive provides data and code to reproduce the uncertainty-aware capacity expansion model for California's grid planning. It includes instructions to run deterministic and three adaptive robust optimization cases, plus 312 stress test…

This paper proposes a novel load forecasting model based on Graph Q Networks (GQNs) to address the challenges of modern power grids with high renewable integration. The model achieves superior accuracy (MAPE 1.2%, RMSE 0.8 MW) compared to e…

Dar, Munir

This paper analyzes the constitutional division of powers for Canadian national interest projects, including climate change and energy transition initiatives. It examines Supreme Court rulings (GHG Pricing Act, Impact Assessment Act) and ar…
